Defence minister jets to Kenya and Madagascar

India's Defence Minister Sanjay Seth will travel to two African countries next week for important meetings. He plans to visit Kenya and Madagascar from June 23 through June 26. Both nations asked him to come for special ceremonies that celebrate their friendship with India. Seth will bring other Indian officials with him on the trip. The visits show how strong the bonds remain between India and these African partners.

Seth arrives in Kenya on June 23 for his first major event there. He will help reveal a new war monument that honors soldiers from both countries who died fighting. The memorial sits in Taita-Taveta County and remembers brave fighters from India and Kenya. Local defense leaders invited Seth to take part in the ceremony. The monument represents the shared sacrifices both nations made during difficult times.

The minister heads to Madagascar's capital city on June 26 for another celebration. That country marks 65 years since it gained freedom from colonial rule and started its military forces. Seth's presence at the anniversary shows respect for Madagascar's independence struggle. India fought similar battles against foreign control throughout its history. Both countries understand what it means to win freedom after long fights.

These trips strengthen the partnerships India has built across Africa over many years. The three nations work together on defense matters, trade deals and diplomatic issues. They share ocean borders that make cooperation important for security. Seth's visits prove that old friendships between India and Africa continue growing stronger today.
